As someone for whom being a follower of Christ is not a belief of choice but a way of life, I am constantly in philosophical self-debate about the justification of the truth about what I believe in.<br /><br />I don't think I can believe without knowing, or understand without seeing.<br /><br />I think in a sense, it is precisely because of this that when this story came up, CS Lewis and The Narnia Chronicles held particular resonance with me.<br /><br />Lucky I am - not that I was able to see, or to understand, but to finally be able to agree.petitemoihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01309698217612098699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13819578.post-71881764422449217112009-04-19T08:50:00.000+01:002009-04-19T08:50:00.000+01:00interesting that you should have "stumbled&qu...interesting that you should have "stumbled" upon THE NARNIA CHRONICLE. my wife & i, having had some involvement with this film, prayed that some would "stumble" upon it & be challenged, encouraged or.....become followers of Aslan.<br /><br />i myself "stumbled" on, in a God-appointed way, an early Norman Stone BBC drama-documentary. it was called THE DIFFERENT DRUMMER, about Jack Clemo, a blind / deaf Cornish poet (Festival of Britain, Methuen, Gollancz published poet) who also followed Aslan / Christ.<br /><br />http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en-us&q=jack+clemo&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8<br /><br />Clemo's influence on my own poetry was profound & pertinent. we became correspondents for about 12 years, until he died. our exchanged correspondence is with his papers in Exeter University.<br /><br />so, my connection with Norman Stone goes back a long time. glad that you were blessed by this film.<br /><br />all the best<br /><br />louis@samovarbooks.comlouishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16032510580670617808noreply@blogger.com
